Apologies in advance if this has already been asked.

The excellent post linked below goes through the relative benefits of the two. However, my question is - does this conclusion change once you've maxed out NISA and want to purchase into a taxable account? And with the likelihood of transferring ( selling and re-purchasing ) into 2024 NISA. Are there any advantages to the ETF for that use case ?

Some Maxis ETFs have had some pretty huge monthly tracking errors (see the All Country ETF} so be a little cautious.

The advantages and disadvantages of ETFs was pretty well hashed out in the thread.

ETFs allow for immediate price discovery, so you know exactly what you're buying and selling.

However, humans are very fallible and most attempts to utilize this feature to their advantage leads to market timing mistakes that cost the investor.
